Hey guys,
Trying to use mplayer to watch DVDs but it is quite slow. A lot of artifacts
and buffering. Quite unwatchable. I have been tweaking a few settings here and
there but I thought I'd ask from more experience users out there.
A few settings that I am using now,
* -vo xv
* -cache 8192
83 matches
